Alan,
did you install GiP from one of the websites or did you use the Mint
repositories to install? If you use the latter method it would also
automatically install any dependencies. The Perl module you mention can
be installed through apt-get, a google search gave me:

I've been trying to download a large programme (around 6GB) and it

I remembered I had this problem last year with some large Wimbledon
programmes and the only solution that worked then was using a Linux
installation (at that time Linux Mint-16 32 bit. Only problem is that
the PC I was using then is no longer alive, so it's been a case of
installing Linux (Mint-17.1 64 bit) onto a different PC. Oh boy, I now
remember why I loathe Linux so much, it's like pulling teeth without
anaesthetic..... :-(
I've tried to follow the installation instructions as closely as
possible bearing in mind I might as well be reading Chinese but after
umpteen iterations to download and install things that the system
seemed to be telling me it needed, I'm still hitting a brick wall.
This is the output I'm getting on using the command line instruction

I've run and rerun the latest installer and XML::Simple (I get
XML::Simple is up to date. (2.20) but to no avail.
If I'd had a pointed head prior to all of this, it sure as heck would
be well and truly blunted by now... Can anyone help please, in PLAIN
ENGLISH?
Thx
Alan
